Natural Farming At Partners in Development Foundation, we see land stewardship as a key component to community health. Stewarding the land is an extension of our commitment to the next generation of the communities we work with today. We extend our care for the ‘āina and the communities we serve through implementing and promoting the practice of natural farming. As an island community we import 80-90% of our food. This is a striking percentage and highlights the level of food insecurity we collectively face. As we push for food security as a community, we also seek to ensure the quality of the food we eat today and into the future. Therefore we’re committed to agricultural models that sustain our communities and the land, while providing healthy and abundant food.
